Insight Timer

Comments

Yes and yes. I use that and Buddhify. Insight lets you do whatever you want to do. you can just set a timer and go you can participate with a group, friend or a specific teacher. You can do guided meditations or meditation to various nature sounds etc. Very easy to use.

I like Buddhify for specific situations it is all guided but you select what you are dealing with (whether you are waiting for someone, dealing with illness, falling asleep or whatever) and you can choose meditations from like 4 to 20 minutes within many categories. I love having it with me when I am waiting for kids to be done with activities, or I put it to go when I am driving and it keeps me focused.

I am an Insight Timer user and fan.
In fact, I am kept really busy administrating two groups there at the moment.
My user name there is Carol of Switzerland, and the groups are "Relationships" and "Tao and Zenpathy," in case you care to visit, @Hozan.
You must join a group, and after five days being an IT user, you are allowed to post.

Edit: the Insight Timer New Buddhist group has been underused, @person.
I left it some time ago, but joined again right now.
Maybe we could rekindle it somehow?

Now we spread the Peace. I used the standard timer on my Ipad yesterday. It takes a little more effort to use the Insight Timer but I am up for a bit of group participation and resonance ... once again.

I rarely have data turned on on my phone but I do use insight timer offline. Just tried to find the New Buddhist group after checking my profile online but a groups search didn't reveal anything. On a side note I've got 817 hours of meditation logged since I started using it. I've impressed myself.

If someone could tell me how to join the New Buddhist group I'd appreciate it. I'm Traveller in Nottingham on IT.
